[b][/Strain name:chocolope Seedbank: DNA Genetics Genetics:Original Chocolate Thai female x Cannalope male Grown in :Germinated January 28th, harvest 20th of May 2008 Grow type: organic soil grow/ veg with 2 x's 90 watt l.e.d.'s Nutrients: liquid seaweed, seaweed compost, bat guano, worm castings, coco fiber, perlite, organic potting soil, Pro-mix, bonemeal, dolomite lime, epsom salts(tiny bit) some other organic (sh...)stuff flowered with 2 x's 600 watts hps Grown from:seed to clone Veg time:approximately 6 weeks Flowering time:9 weeks 4 days Height:about 4 feet Characteristics:Grows EXTREMELY well for either the novice grower or professional. Exceptionally fast grower, clones well, dark green foliage, seems to be insect resistant, no special requirements. Smell:chocolatey with the mellow smell of fruity cannalope Taste: smooth, keifish sweet at first with a more chocolate flavour as the smoke sits in lungs and mouth High  h Bleep Yes ...awesome awesome high BUT not recommended for people with problems with paranoid thoughtsYield:Heavy yielder......do not have weight of harvest BUT it is hefty Personal opinion:I am not the LEAST big disappointed in this one. I've waited patiently for her to show her stuff and it is as pleasant and trippy as they say it is. It REALLY does taste like chocolope and it is a LOT easier to grow than I ever imagined. For some reason because this sounded so good I figured it would be difficult to grow but it couldn't be further from the truth. In researching harvest times for this girl i read one review from High Times magazine where the grower suggested in is better at 8 weeks than 9 to 10 weeks as suggested. Then I read a review from a big journal over here and this grower states that it is better harvested at not earlier than 12 weeks . He said he couldn't really taste the chocolate before 12 weeks of flowering So I really think it depends on how long you vegged for and what type of lights and nutes it is getting. Not really sure. All I know is that I am confident as ever in strongly suggesting this strain cause it is ALL that it is cracked up to be. If this is out of 10 then I give it a 10 . It delivers. I have to agree with the other grower here that chocolope left to flower longer than the suggested time totally changes the taste. This is one of those unbelievable strains that is easy to trim, dry and actually tastes great as is before curing but once cured is a true delight. You too will become a total chocolope piggie    It also makes awesome canna butter too The trim is like gold also  This tastes and smells a lot like the old thai stick but with a cannalope flvour added I seriously cannot see how anyone could be disappointed with this strain. It is the best I have smoked or grown and I have grown a LOT of weed in my life and smoked for even longer. B] Last edited by Lacy; 06-13-2009 at 08:07 PM.. | ||

| Thanks people. Another thing that I would like to point out is that I suffer from fibromyalgia and depression. During this time of year especially I tend to get so busy with outdoor gardening along with all the other hobbies and chores that I tend to overdo it and run out of steam. This strain is amazing for ambition. It keeps you motivated for hours as it is very creatively cerebrial. For depression it is also terrific in that it keeps you wanting to be active and participate in things. The only downside that i have to say is that if you have insonia then I strongly recommend that you do not indulge in this strain before bedtime  That is if you want to sleep Its really kind of trippy and I tend to want to talk a lot more  Its certainly a VERY social type high for me that is It might have a different effect on others. BUT again I HIGHLY recommend this strain. You guys are gonna be blown away seriouly  | ||
